Description | The authors present a case of primary cutaneous lymphoma in an 80 years old patient. They discuss issues with early stage diagnosis and they mention the possible treatment options for curing the disease. The authors also touch the problematics of antibiotic therapy for a pre-frail senior that could have possibly caused the patient a pseudomembranous colitis caused by Clostridium difficile. |
